Daily forecasts for December 2016 written by Rob Tillett. Click here for Moonbeam's Month in Brief.

Sat Dec 1:
Close to Home

You'll enjoy staying close to home today, Rams. With the Moon
in homeloving Cancer, home-based businesses and family matters are in the
frame, but beware of ego-clashes as the Holiday Season hots up! This is a
good time to get in touch with your parents, and even if you don't get
along, you'll be glad you tried.
Beneficial colors are emerald green and pearly white.
Lucky numbers are 11 and 21.

Sun Dec 2:
Spritely And Spirited

You may feel sluggish in the morning, but by afternoon you should
be feeling spritely. December is a month for remembering joy, and for
looking back on the blessings of the past. Browse through a catalogue, or
visit a store that carries classic toys and remember the child within you!
Favorable colors are warm peach and sunlit yellow.
Lucky numbers are 24 and 33.

Mon Dec 3:
Playful Rams

The Moon moves through playful Leo and your fifth house of
romance and creativity, putting you in a joyful mood. Today is filled
with good cheer and it all begins with you! Rams should be feeling like
spring lambs during this time! Express your joy and creativity,
allowing your inner child to rule the day.
Fortunate colors are golden amber and purple amethyst.
Lucky numbers are 6 and 19.

Tue Dec 4:
Generous Rams

The Leo Moon continues to add sweetness to your life, so enjoy
these moments of harmony and happiness. You may be feeling especially
generous today but your wallet may not be able to provide the means for
every gift you'd like to purchase. Be creative and find smaller, less
expensive gifts that tell them you really thought about who they are, and
what they like.
Fortunate colors are pale gold and royal purple.
Lucky numbers are 10 and 15.

Wed Dec 5:
Sense And Sensibility

Your sixth house of health and service is activated by the Moon
in Virgo today, so it's time to get back on that health regimen. Most
Rams are too active to ever gain a great deal of weight, but it's still
important to pay attention to good nutrition. Throw away any rich,
fatty foods in your fridge or you'll find yourself indulging every day
for the next week!
Beneficial colors are cobalt blue and pure white.
Lucky numbers are 14 and 32.

Thu Dec 6:
The Clash

A clash of wills with a good friend or associate is likely, as
the illogical Moon, fiery Sun and rebellious Uranus combine to add stress
to your day. It's not a good idea to lend anyone money today: if you
do, make sure the terms of repayment are clear. If you can afford to make
a gift and feel the need to do so, go ahead. But remember: once it leaves
your hands, you have no say how it should be spent....
Auspicious colors are aubergine and crimson.
Lucky numbers are 27 and 36.

Fri Dec 7:
Work And Play

Taking care of business should be your number one priority this
morning, whether you need to bathe your pets, water the plants or tend to
finances. Later, when the changing Moon enters lovely Libra and your
seventh house of partnerships, grab your mate or best friend's hand and
get some serious entertainment this evening!
Favorable colors are pale beige and rich rose.
Lucky numbers are 5 and 15.

Sat Dec 8:
In Tune

You and your partner should be on the same wavelength for the
next two days, as the Moon stimulates your seventh house of marriage
and partnerships. Business partners can be in tune, so schedule
meetings and brain storming sessions for this afternoon. Express your
willingness to meet your partner half way.
Favorable colors are red coral and pale aqua.
Lucky numbers are 7 and 16.

Sun Dec 9:
Old Flame

The emotional Moon and intuitive Neptune blend to create wonder
in your life, and some Rams may even fall for an old flame again! This is
fine if you're single, but it can create quite a problem if you're
already spoken for. Be sure to let reason reign over your emotions if
they threaten to get out of hand. This is an anything-can-happen sort
of day, so enjoy the ride.
Fortunate colors are sapphire blue and sunset pink.
Lucky numbers are 25 and 34.

Mon Dec 10:
Nothing To Fear

You may feel a bit moody today, but try not to take it out on the
ones you love. It's normal to feel somewhat edgy during this time in your
lunar cycle; thoughts of death can disturb your normal disposition.
Remember that there really is nothing to fear; the beauty of life is in
simply living in the present and enjoying each day.
Fortunate colors are indian red and ebony.
Lucky numbers are 9 and 18.

Tue Dec 11:
Itchy Feet

You may feel bored and you'll be itching to get out and about
as the Moon and Mercury enter adventurous Sagittarius. Even if you
don't have the freedom to indulge your whims, try some different food
or maybe a foreign movie this evening. Studious Rams will enjoy reading
history tonight: curling up with a good book in bed may be the
beginning of a wonderful journey...
Fortunate colors are apple green and silvery red.
Lucky numbers are 30 and 37.

Wed Dec 12:
Make The Most Of It

Don't waste this great opportunity: go out and make the most of
some free time. Try and find something new or exciting to do with your
partner. Rams love a challenge. You don't have to go hang gliding or
canyoning, even a foreign movie or exotic food will fit the bill. Just go
with the flow and take care not to ruin things by being too demanding.
Auspicious colors are sage green and terra cotta.
Lucky numbers are 11 and 24.

Thu Dec 13:
New Moon

You may feel as though you're stir crazy, as the Sagittarian
New Moon appears in your ninth house of travel and adventure. If cold
weather is keeping you from getting outside, you may need to bring the
tropics indoors. If the heat is keeping you from getting outside, it's
time to seek a retreat by water. Find a way to feed the Ram's desire
for change.
Fortunate colors are cobalt and tan.
Lucky numbers are 9 and 10.

Fri Dec 14:
Stronger Than Usual

Your feelings are stronger than usual, and your views are more
vehement. Make sure you don't do or say anything you may regret later. By
all means though, defend yourself and make yourself heard. If you
listen to what your co-workers are saying, they in turn will be more
receptive to your thoughts and ideas.
Fortunate colors are powder blue and golden amber.
Lucky numbers are 23 and 41.

Sat Dec 15:
Magical Moments

Magical moments in your life may be blinding you to what's really
happening. The ambitious Moon concentrates all your energy in the moment,
depleting your reserves. Maybe you'll deal with the bills when they
come in later, but right now you aren't interested. After all, why
spoil a good time by thinking about the consequences? It's okay to
maintain the 'act now, think later' attitude for another day or so.
Advantageous colors are pearl grey and pale coral.
Lucky numbers are 22 and 26.

Sun Dec 16:
New Resolve

If you don't take care of yourself, no one else will. If you've
built such a perfect world on your own, it's only fair that you get to
enjoy it for a while. As Venus moves into adventurous Sagittarius, your
new resolve makes you attractive to someone who hardly noticed you
before. It's up to you whether you want to get to know them more
intimately. Romance, marriage, or any cooperative venture involving a
foreign country or someone of another culture or race is stimulated.
Fortunate colors are lavender and pale gold.
Lucky numbers are 24 and 37.

Mon Dec 17:
Head High

All the world loves a lover, but it will give you a wide berth
when you're being a major grump. You can't expect people to be on side
if you run around butting things all day! You may feel low at times,
but keep your morale and your head high. If you’re looking for love,
this could be your lucky day: just keep an open mind while you search for
the right partner.
Advantageous colors are maroon and gold.
Lucky numbers are 5 and 10.

Tue Dec 18:
Reflections

When you let your inner self peek out, it's a pleasure for all to
behold. Your mind is brimming with enough ideas and thoughts to keep
you busy for days. Let the money roll in! With the reflective Moon in
Pisces, it's easy to do your work with half a mind while you dream
about the future. Good things are on their way to your door.
Fortunate colors are gold and russet.
Lucky numbers are 15 and 27.

Wed Dec 19:
Victory and Success

Victory and success are in the stars, but watch the tone of
your jokes. Even if they aren't directed toward a particular person,
smart ass one-liners and sarcastic comments are sure to bring glares from
the people in your general vicinity. Not everyone has your quirky sense
of humor!
Advantageous colors are true blue and pure white.
Lucky numbers are 6 and 23.

Thu Dec 20:
Positive Energy

Positive energy surrounds you as the day begins and the Moon
heads into your sign. As far as you're concerned, the world is really one
big extended family. Right now you like everyone, even those that you
haven't had the good fortune to meet. Forget about old grudges and
enjoy the day to its fullest.
Advantageous colors are cobalt blue and pewter.
Lucky numbers are 32 and 39.

Fri Dec 21:
The Solstice

Although you've probably already mentally started the Christmas
holidays, the coming four weeks will be a fantastic time to push ahead
with your career and long-term plans. Start thinking carefully about what
you want to achieve in 2013 and get into formulating a schedule. Write
down your New Year's resolutions, and promise yourself that you'll
stick to them.
Fortunate colors are dark purple and pale pink.
Lucky numbers are 10 and 32.

Sat Dec 22:
Room For Dessert

Resist the urge to stay in your own little corner of the room.
There'll be plenty of time to spend on your own once this flurry of
activity is over. Right now, it's time to make good connections, both
professionally and socially. You're growing in ways that seemed
impossible just a short time ago. As the feast progresses, have another
helping - just make sure you save room for dessert!
Auspicious colors are jet black and ruby red.
Lucky numbers are 17 and 21.

Sun Dec 23:
See It Through

Of course the quality of your experiences is important, Rams, but
what about finishing what you started? Short term and long term goals
require vastly different approaches. You need to work on your patience
and see things through. You'll be first in line at the sales after
Christmas, so don't get carried away in the rush to prepare the perfect
festivity. Keep control of your purse.
Conservative colors are deep bronze and green olive.
Lucky numbers are 2 and 10.

Mon Dec 24:
Christmas Eve

Although it's tempting to do everything yourself, it's best not
to. This is a time to delegate some of your responsibilities. Keep in
mind that just because there's an opportunity on the table, that
doesn't necessarily mean you have to take it. Learn how to refuse good
offers without spoiling your future options.
Prosperous colors are peach and rose.
Lucky numbers are 33 and 34.

Tue Dec 25:
Merry Christmas!

Now that things have livened up a bit, you can take a look around
and see what you've been missing. Whether you're having friends and
family over or going out, shut out all distractions and concentrate on
having a great time. Everyone will see how much fun you're having
today, and most of them wish they were having half as good a time!
Advantageous colors are red wine and emerald green.
Lucky numbers are 9 and 10.

Wed Dec 26:
Go For It

Instead of focusing all your energy on yourself, it's time to pay
attention to the other people in your life as Mars strides into Aquarius.
Friends, organizations, and children, especially those who are not your
own but for whom you may have responsibility take the focus. Lighten up
and celebrate your accomplishments, rather than dwelling on your
shortcomings. What really does make you happy? Go for it!
Appropriate colors are pale tan and orange.
Lucky numbers are 3 and 12.

Thu Dec 27:
Scatty Moon

There's more than one voice in your head telling you what to do
and decisions are hard to make with the Moon in scatty Gemini. More
than ever, you understand those Zen riddles about inaction being your
best course of action. Stay calm and trust your first instincts. Events
have a way of sorting themselves out, no matter what you try to do.
Just relax and make this easy on your system.
Beneficial colors are bronze and cream.
Lucky numbers are 33 and 34.

Fri Dec 28:
Full Moon

Even as the world changes around you, the essential things that
matter stay the same. With the Full Moon in your fourth house it's time
to make a new start, as though the old year has already dropped away!
Your life is full of love, beauty and the overwhelming satisfaction
that you're right here right now. Instead of being selective, why not
include all of your friends in the festivities?
Expressive colors are sapphire blue and silver.
Lucky numbers are 4 and 10.

Sat Dec 29:
Let Go...

Trust others enough to let go. With the sensitive Moon in
nurturing Cancer, all your old hang-ups should have virtually
disappeared. Feel free to throw yourself into the arms of the world. No
matter what kind of response you get, don't take no for an answer. You
have every right to demand what you want, and every reason to expect that
you'll get it. Warmth and desire color all your actions for the next day
or so.
Advantageous colors are steely grey and grass green.
Lucky numbers are 8 and 49.

Sun Dec 30:
High Energy

The dramatic Leo Moon is tailor-made for the Ram, so enjoy the
romantic and creative energy. Anything you set out to do should turn
out well, so go with the flow. If fear or insecurity is holding you back,
you need to rise above self-doubt and use that authentic drive of
yours. After all, it's almost the New Year!
Fortunate colors are gold and red.
Lucky numbers are 5 and 27.

Mon Dec 31:
New Year's Eve

Aries is always striving for more, but the Leo Moon commands
you to party! Aries people love a challenge and are dynamic and
creative with strong leadership qualities. However, you can be
impatient and often have big egos, which can make others think you
arrogant and over-bearing. When making your New Year's resolutions, you
just need to be more receptive to others' ideas and opinions. Give thanks
to the Universe for the many blessings that you have. Enjoy a great night!
Auspicious colors are garnet and emerald.
Lucky numbers are 8 and 10.
